Quick 7-135, 1 TD (33rd) Jeffery was the 5th WR taken, and is currently 11th in Receptions, 10th in Yards, and tied for 5th in TDs. I know injuries are the main reason behind his numbers, but overall I find this class of WR's somewhat lackluster. Not a single WR will have over 800 yards, or 7 TD's (based on averages) on the season. I know Blackmon just had a monster game, but that makes his season numbers look worse because he had done almost nothing until that game. I remember leading up to the draft, someone mentioning Hilton as a prospective pick. Looks pretty good now. Especially because he is also doing KR and PR duties as well. Report
November 24, 201213 yr comment_110956 I'll be more interested in seeing what their numbers look like in their second season. Rookie WR's tend to not have the type of impact from the get go as other positions across the league, unless your name is AJ Green. Report

Rookie WR's tend to not have the type of impact from the get go as other positions across the league, unless your name is AJ Green. Or Julio Jones. But you're right, for WRs the true measure isnt until their 2nd or even 3rd year. I am a little concerned with his (Jeffery's) two seperate injuries in the same year. That will really be a good test of his resolve. Report
November 25, 201213 yr comment_110958 Yeah, the Jeffery thing worries me a bit. Rookies need to be on the field or their development will suffer. Ask Gabe Carimi, although, he was probably bad anyways. Report
November 26, 201213 yr comment_110995 I'm happy with Alshon Jeffrey versus what I've seen from Michael Floyd, including Floyd's lack of work ethic in the offseason. I think we'll come out ahead long term on this one. Report
